Chapter 8 Maintenance

Product Care

■There are no user serviceable or maintainable parts in hp dvd-writer drives.

■When the drive is not in use, store the lid or tray in the closed position to keep out dust particles and other contaminants.

■Avoid vibration and shock to the drive. Excessive vibration and shock can misalign the laser and/or optics.

■Never mount or operate the drive in an upside down position.

Product Cleaning

Drive

The hp dvd-writer drives do not require cleaning.

■Never use a “CD-ROM cleaning kit” with this drive. The abrasive surface and brushes can damage the optics for the laser of the drive.

■If the external case becomes soiled, clean with a soft damp cloth and a mild detergent. Never clean with alcohol, gasoline, kerosene, benzene, lacquer thinner, or anti-static agents.

■Never use compressed air to clean the drive! The drive has parts that have very fine movement. Compressed air can impact these parts with dust and contaminants, causing them to fail.

Media

With reasonable care you can expect your DVDs or CDs to last for decades. However, to ensure performance and durability, follow these guidelines for handling your DVDs or CDs:

■Protect recording surfaces from scratches, fingerprints, and dirt.

■Hold DVDs or CDs by the outer edge or by the center hole.

■You can clean a CD with a soft, dry cloth. You can also use commercial CD cleaner or ethyl alcohol. Wipe the CD in straight lines from the center to the edges only.

■Write by hand only on the “white” premarked label side using an oil-based felt tip marker. Do not use a ball-point pen.

■Do not leave a CD in direct sunlight or in hot, humid location.
